VOLS, Bama, UF and UGA already voted against this once. Why does Jay Jacobs think things are different now?

Someone needs to let him know TSIO runs this conference



TSIO matches the traditional best two SEC programs. All other considerations are secondary to preserving the SEC's crown jewel rivalry.

Because it's easy to SAY you want to keep playing Alabama when you know they already have a cross division rival.

This doesn't happen unless the Iron Bowl and TSIO stay put. Why would we want to get rid of our biggest game? That's just a ridiculous thought.

It makes more sense travel wise.

Plus the more often we get a chance to play Auburn, the more chances we get to put an awful streak behind us.

If you read this, Bowl, go ahead.

If it came down to it and they for some reason swapped them, Tennessee would be dropped way before Auburn. The TSIO hasn't been relevant in a long time.

Not a fricking chance. Alabama will fight to keep TSIO as I'm sure Tennessee would as well.

So bitches? Cowards? Easy road? Which is it? If Auburn moving to the East is cowardly, what would UA keeping UT over AU signify?
